Abstract

This study was designed to evaluate the effect of permed lash wear of the selected 4-th year female students in the School of Optometry. Subjects were purposely selected according to our inclusion and exclusion criteria which narrowed down to forty-three subjects. The subjects’ undergone pre-post assessment and permed lash wear procedure. The assessment was composed of self- administered questionnaire; ocular surface disease index questionnaire; slit-lamp bio-microscopy; noninvasive tear break up time; invasive tear break up time and Schirmer’s test. Data were gathered upon preliminary assessment before permed lash wear, After Day 1 and After Day 7 of permed lash wear procedure. Meibomian gland dysfunction is the most common finding in eyelid margin and t of flakes in eyelashes. Thus, in terms of tear film status majority of the subjects had dry eye syndrome which decreasing severity on day 7 after perming lash procedure. Statistically, permed lash wear procedure had no effect on the ocular surface, palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva.
